General description

Carbonic Anhydrase is a metalloenzyme with zinc. The active site of carbonic anhydrase contains three conserved histidine residues (His94, His96 and His119).

Application

Carbonic Anhydrase has been used:
  • as a component of nine-protein mixture for the comparative proteomic mass spectrometry analysis of bovine brain samples
  • as a molecular marker in gel filtration chromatography
  • as a standard protein to test the recovery of CMA/20 microdialysis probe

Biochem/physiol Actions

Carbonic anhydrase is essential for the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. It is also crucial for the physiological processes including respiration, ion transport, acid–base balance, lipid and carbohydrate metabolic pathways. Carbonic anhydrase participates in electrolyte secretion and in the carbon dioxide fixation.

Unit Definition

One collagen digestion unit (CDU) liberates peptides from collagen from bovine achilles tendon equivalent in ninhydrin color to 1.0 μmole of leucine in 5 hours at pH 7.4 at 37 °C.

The carbonic anhydrases enzymes (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) are zinc containing metalloproteins, which efficiently catalyse the reversible conversion of carbon dioxide to bicarbonate and release proton. These enzymes are essentially important for biological system and play several important physiological and patho-physiological

Unlike all other currently available sampling techniques, microdialysis allows the continuous recovery of dialysed fluid from the interstitial space of living tissue. Microdialysis has been extensively used to study small molecules such as neurotransmitters, metabolites and drugs in the brain

Dependent on concise, predefined protein sequence databases, traditional search algorithms perform poorly when analyzing mass spectra derived from wholly uncharacterized protein products. Conversely, de novo peptide sequencing algorithms can interpret mass spectra without relying on reference databases. However, such algorithms

Personalized in vitro models for dysplasia and carcinogenesis in the pancreas have been constrained by insufficient differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) into the exocrine pancreatic lineage. Here, we differentiate hPSCs into pancreatic duct-like organoids (PDLOs) with morphological, transcriptional, proteomic
